Hm, I can't check right now, went back to OS4 to verify that performance can be good and I'm thinking of trying my hand at a full Debian instead if things with OS6 doesn't improve very fast. But yeah, I verified +C on the iSCSI container file.
Also I'm looking for an easily understandable description of the workings of BTRFS while writing data. I'm wondering if writing many small blocks means multiple read/write operations over the array, triggering multiple seek/rotational latencies. If that is the case, there should be a huge difference between RAID1 and RAID5. But that would be a more general problem with MDRAID and BTRFS in many scenarios...
